attackm0de 38 Posted April 8, 2014 Rises in the east, sets in the west.In dayz it rises in the SE and sets in the SW which is weird as hell but "apparently" accurate. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steak and Potatoes 13480 Posted April 8, 2014 In dayz it rises in the SE and sets in the SW which is weird as hell but "apparently" accurate. Precisely, starts in 3 valleys then works over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Facetentacles 92 Posted April 8, 2014 Don't rely on the sun for direction anymore. Since they changed around reset times and all that it has ended up with me lost in the middle of nowhere too many times now. I actually started carrying a compass again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alferret 45 Posted April 8, 2014 Don't know if still possible but with a compass and pointing it at the sun you could actually (ish) tell the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Katana67 2907 Posted April 8, 2014 I have no idea if this is just me, but in the mod, it clearly used to set hard west. Now it's clearly southwest. Might just be me, I dunno. Either way, I haven't used the sun to navigate in a long time. Which is sort of sad, memorizing the entire map sort of does that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steak and Potatoes 13480 Posted April 8, 2014 I tired being a "pacifist". Didn't even carry a weapon. Still got smoked Its not for the faint of heart, it used to be alot more fun in the mod with a less complex medical system. I've had pretty good luck meeting up with new players, there are always the times when I get wiped across the pavement but I dont mind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
